[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Beyondcr:
Ok I am going on the 3rd try at fixing my friends Note2 T889, First attempt was to use a precut tape/glue strip that just went around the border, it seemed to seal fine but then there was screen contact towards the top center causing a rainbow bubble plus I guess he got the phone around flour (works at a pizza shop) getting dust inside the screen the precut strip did not seal properly, I then took the extra scrap from the precut glue strip and used a razor to cut thin strips, took the glass back off and got the tape closer to the screen and built a border doubling it up because I seen somewhere they said double up the tape, now the touch response is little off towards the top kind of hit or miss when you pull down the menu, although the stylist works fine, the tape must have been to thick he is fine with it for now until I get the proper or workable supplies... now some questions,

I am going to order a roll of double sided tape from ebay it looks like they are all about the same, so should I go with 1mm or 2mm, LOCA Liquid Optical Clear adhesive requires a UV lamp, I do not want to make a investment for one phone, but if more manufactures start using the stuff I might consider. what about this OCA Tape I see some people selling, can it easily be applied without special tools? or dose anyone have excellent results without any of the optical glue. I just want to order right stuff so I do not have to do the job again, some insight on the OCA tape would be greatly appreciated.

At the cost of a 3rd try, why not just send it to Samsung to replace. The cost is nominal and no messing it up. I sent my RAZR maxx in to Motorola with a cracked screen, they only charged me 107 dollars, I paid to ship it to them and free shipping back to me. So total cost was like 125 because I insured the phone for 700 when I shipped it.

I will say this, I now own 3 Galaxy Note 2's . I had broken two of the glass screens and went through the process of ordering the replacement glass and the several of the double sided optical glue sheets, did the step by step procedure i researched online. Did not work, I tried several times. The optical tape is very difficult.,Even made a vacuum container to suck any air from the glass/tape/LCD but no good. not enough vacuum. I spent about a $100 and many frustrating hours trying to do it alone. I gave up and found a repair shop and let them order a complete pre-assembled LCD and glass assembly for both the Note2's that I had broke. I originally paid the no contract full price on those two, then $100 or so trying to fix, it cost me $180 each to have them repaired. I'm invested deep in these now and have the best cases and protection on them I could buy from Sedio, Don't waste your money or time, one screw up with the LCD and your done. Let a shop do it. That's my opinion. Good luck to you whatever you end up doing.

Edit--let me add that I dont know about the $30 glass on-line, but my repair guy also did the same thing you mentioned with just using a double sided tape around the outside edges and the same issues you had so did we, as for the tapes your asking on sorry no idea,.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Beyondcr:
Sending it out is a very tempting option, I was upfront with my friend before I started the repair I told him about 20 times I did not want to touch it and if I screwed up he will have to pay $200 for the glass already bonded to the screen, he told me to give it a try, so seeing how I like tinkering with things I am now going to try again, I appreciate your experience and would love to hear from a few more people, it will be great if we can figure something out that dose not require a expensive vacuum machine.

Hi guys

For starters

He got me quite convinced :D But he has a point

I just wondered if rooting was really worth it, 'cause from what I've read the Galaxy Note 2 blows all other phones already out of the water! Which is nice :P

But is there a huge difference, besides annoying ads that are gone?

PS: How much would you hate me, if I told you I had intentions buying a HTC one X or LG Optimus 4x HD

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aloush5592:
there are a lot of things which makes it worth to root your note 2...

First of All using Custom Roms and Kernel...Sec....Under volt or over volt......under clock or over clock....customize your CPU Scaling Govenor.

Last but not least....Moving games to your external memory using the App DIRECTORY BIND.

But my Advice:

After Rooting your Phone..Make immediately a nandroid Backup.

this helps you when you install custom roms and wish to revert back to stock.

After Reverting back to stock...use Unroot method from Note 2 Toolkit v3...and set the Binary counter to 0 with triangle away.

hope i helped you.

Best Regards.

This forum is for Sprint's CDMA galaxy s3 in the US you may wanna try the international/i9300 forums, pal

I like to break stuff! :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CNexus:
A factory reset only wipes the /data partition (all app data), its not possible that it could have deleted the phones IMEI as well

In short the IMEI is still there
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
IMEI vanishes when you flash a PIT that sets the partition sizes wrong and the IMEI gets masked inside the partition. Technically its still there but the /system can't see it. You can get it back but its not easy. First you have to flash a stock full restore with PIT then you have to master reset the device thru the dialer menus, then you need qpst/cdma ws on a sprint version to locate the IMEI and replace it with the correct value if needed. Sometimes when it becomes hidden it only shows all 0's when you restore it until you go into the NV partition and actually re write the missing values

I like to break stuff! :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] whitmerray:
I flashed my GS3 to boost mobile. Long story short, I used a boost evodesign4g as a donor, I changed the correct values to get it activated, but I also changed the IMEI with DFS to match the evo design4g (never thinking to back up my original gs3 imei let alone write it down:crying::o). I figured out at a much later date that I never needed to change my IMEI to match the evo design. Now I am switching over to voyager mobile as they allow byod sprint devices, so I can have lte. BUT ONE HUGE PROBLEM, Currently my GS3 has the wrong IMEI.... I need to recover my original sprint GS3 IMEI as it is linked in the sprint database to my meid and ICCID for LTE activation. Yes I have checked the obvious, I searched the forums found nothing for my situation, it’s not on the white sticker on the back I don't have the original box anymore because if I did I would not need to ask for help...I figure it might be similar to recovering a Verizon GS3 IMEI, Maybe the original is hidden in one of the NV items?. So does anyone know how to recover the original factory set IMEI for a SPRINT GS3??? Is there a way to calculate it from the ICCID number?:confused:

Thank you to all who reply! I’m really in a bind here and need some help or guidance.

I have followed the downgrade tutorial. Everything went as described, but after the last step the phone is stuck in qdl model. Even if I hold the power button it disapear and showing up as "qualcom, inc. gobi wireless modem (qdl mode)". Before when I hold power it was showing as "qualcom, inc" for few seconds and I could detect it. but now it showing up in qdl mode all the time and cant do anything with it. Does anyone know why?

I cant write in dev area, thats why I post here.
[HTC One S] _-..zKiLLA..-_:
Good because this isnt development. just restart over at step 5. make sure your computer sees your phone. and make sure your copying and pasting the commands. I got carried away with pressing the up button not realizing the commands are totally different but i still had no real issues just took longer than it should.

I cant repeat the procedures because writing only works when the phone shows up as "qualcom, inc", so im only getting waiting device...., mine is in qdl mode all the time.

[HTC One X+] geoiva:
Hello,

I've got a One X+ unlocked and rooted. My LCD and digitizer both got cracked. I opened it myself and tried to replace the digitizer from One X but it didn't work since the LCD is permanently attached to a plastic body of the phone so you cannot separate the digitizer separate from the LCD. Doing so, I guess the warranty is void. Does it make sense to send the phone to HTC for repair? Would the LCD and digitizer from One X be compatible with one X+?

Thanks,

- George

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] matrix121391:
Last week, I tried updating my TF201 to the latest firmware. Upon doing so, I found that my tablet refused to start. It charges fine (indicated by the orange light), but the most it will do is vibrate when I hold the power button. I've done many combinations of other buttons to, including Volume + and - with Power and pressing Reset, but all to no avail. I'm not quite familiar with the term "bricked", but is this what it is?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] whycali:
nothing shows on the screen after it vibrates?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Gage_Hero:
Not to sound stupid or anything but are you sure it is charging? If you leave it on the charger the light should be green when charged....could be the battery needs to be charged. Also when you plug it in the prime should try to boot... if it has enough battery if it is dead it will not boot.... try charging it until the light turns green.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] isene:
Try to charge on a Desktop or Laptop first, because this ''wakes-up'' the battery.

Don't ask me why, Asus Support told me. But it did work in my case.

I have been researching tablets to find my next one. I have come down to the conclusion that I will get a Transformer Pad Infinity, but before I get it, should I wait for the next big tablet to come out?
[General Questions and Answers] consuela:
The transformer infinity would definitely be a worthy choice by all means!

But the problem with whole mobile device scene is that waiting for the `next big release` is an endless cycle ;)

I remember thinking the same thing when i bought my transformer prime last January, but at one point you just have to make that jump.

Best of luck to ya
[General Questions and Answers] Xnoob62:
I agree with consuela

I agree with consuela... The next NEW big thing is always "coming soon". And as soon as you buy something, even if it's the "latest greatest", it will be old technology within a month or two. Just pick a device that has the options you're looking for, look for a good deal, and make your purchase.

Remember, the device you pick is not a Life Long commitment. Most people will change to a new phone in about a year, 2 years max. A tablet is probably a bit longer.

I got my first tablet for Christmas 2011. I sold it less than a year later, Oct 2012, to buy a bigger better one. I'll probably keep this one much longer.
[General Questions and Answers] rpjwalter:
I agree with the other comments. If anything wait until after mobile world congress to see if any must have tablet is going to be released.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Winesnob:
Android battery usage is only an estimate. You will see the battery drain quickly under heavy use, however when the device is allowed to rest the battery cools and the android estimate of remaining battery is updated. Wiping, flashing, etc will NOT do anything about this.

You can reset the fuel gauge by posting a 1 to this file:

/sys/devices/platform/i2c-gpio.9/i2c-9/9-0036/power_supply/fuelgauge/fg_reset_soc

Or by running

echo "1" > /sys/devices/platform/i2c-gpio.9/i2c-9/9-0036/power_supply/fuelgauge/fg_reset_soc

in terminal (which is the same thing). But first please check if the file is present at the same location.

Last time I checked, the dev and the retail were the exact same price unsubsidized ($549). In that case, unless you could get it under contract for $99 (or even $50), it made no sense at all *not* to buy the dev edition. Where are those $170 you talk about? Maybe there is a discount for the retail version somewhere?

I was lurking about E-bay. There are a few listed for less than retail. Also noticed an "i" version w/ Intel processor but GSM Arena didn't say any thing flattering about it. I'm in AU and they run 600AU$ but are unlockable via the same Dev site. So I save 50$ by ordering the Dev one via the states.

I'm a bit put off by the lack of Development on these awesome handset though. Was starting to entertain other manufacturers because of it. :(

Noticed that the RAZR M XT905 is the Aussi version and does not have the version branding and locked boot loader, might have to pony up for this one 600 AUD...

I am looking for some help with partitioning my sprint Samsung note 2 sd card so that I can use a program such as "app to sd pro".. My internal disc space on the phone is filling up fast. I bought a 32gig mini sd card, but the program does not recognize the card. It indicates that the external sd card is not partitioned as a primary partition. First off- does the phone have to be rooted? Next, can I just use a program such as "mini partitition tool" and just reduce the partition size on it already and make another primary partition without rooting? Can anyone help. thanks.
